We talked about why we study history. Of course most of us are just interested in it and we like the detective aspect of family history I think. But I also believe that it does expand "our moral comprehension" and makes us more responsible citizens. I believe the quote is from Martha Nassbaum whose work I hadn't heard of before. I have now ordered both her books from the library.

You've given me an idea of compiling those I've read/referenced into a reading list. https://mollyscanopy.com/2021/04/margot-moose-and-ancestral-connections-atozchallenge/Molly's Canopyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01571003887840906315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4776281256905648887.post-38062079463975152232021-04-15T14:24:56.284+10:002021-04-15T14:24:56.284+10:00I'll add the book to my TBR list Pauleen.
